What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely-used, evidence-based form of psychotherapy that focuses on identifying and changing negative or irrational thought patterns that lead to harmful behaviors and emotional distress. By recognizing distorted thinking, individuals can learn new coping strategies and healthier ways of responding to stressors.
CBT is effective in treating a variety of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and addiction, and is often incorporated into comprehensive treatment plans.
